Jesus fucking christ we have the stupidest leadership possible. At least 20 years ago they weren’t inviting the Nigerian prince scammers to state dinners.

Yes, because I was talking to the other person who’s been all over this thread talking about their specific experience.

Are you the person (alt) I was asking this of?

That’s not what I’m asking. You designed or built something for some users. They didn’t like it, or didn’t use it as you expected. Was your response to change the software or blame the users for not using it correctly?

In all your software deployments did you blame the users for not getting it or did you redesign the software because it sucked (according to your users)?

After being out of being a direct practitioner, I will say all my direct reports are “faster” in programs we use at work than I am, but I’m still waaaaaaaaaay more efficient than all of them (their inefficiencies drive me crazy actually), but I’ve also taken up a lot of development to keep my mind sharp. If I only had my team to manage and not my own personal projects, I could really see regressing a lot.

and retire gracefully, where the device becomes open source and available to the community of owners who have invested in it.

this is 100% right, you don’t need an AI to describe something you’re already looking at. This is an absurd feature (again aside from the accessibility portion but that’s not what this is).

He also does the things that many of them do. Trump isn’t the only (child) rapist predator, he’s just the most powerful one.

yes, 100%, do not use an LLM for anything you’re not prepared to vet and verify all of. The longer an LLM’s response the higher the odds it loses context and starts repeating or stating total gibberish or makes up data to keep going. If that’s what you want (like a list of fake addresses and phone numbers to prototype an app), great, but that’s about all it’s going to really do.

I think they should stop.

Something to talk about when you’re making the 900th unnecessary video about the switch 2

If I pull the string what else does it say?

Why should your comment exist? Why should sky exist? Why should exist? blah blah blah

I was gonna joke that this article could be “headlines about me, from the future” but then I read this comment and now I might not be joking. These molecules yearn to get the fuck away from this place

Yeah my MacBook is a workhorse, the kind of absurd one that actually does need to not be a tablet, but the MacBook Air and an iPad with a magic keyboard are only different in exceptionally arbitrary ways (and the iPad would be way more convenient with its touch screen, pencil support and modularity).

I use my iPad with a keyboard/touchpad as my primary fuck-around-the-house computer streaming my windows pc and MacBook, there’s obviously no reason an iPad couldn’t be running those OSes natively. That said I don’t really need for iPad os to be more in the way

Because they’re fucking terrible at designing tools to solve problems, they are obviously less and less good at pretending this is an omnitool that can do everything with perfect coherency (and if it isn’t working right it’s because you’re not believing or paying hard enough)

Yup, I’d never hire anyone I ever got a whiff was involved with this.

You asked, and the author of the article asked, by proxy “buhwhy no one mad at apple for same thing” and I’m saying they weren’t the same thing. Apple deserves distinctly different shit. It’s not only my “characterization,” it accords with reality, and is why the author and you don’t see people as mad at apple for doing a different, differently shitty thing.

it’s also funny how you can tilt an average lemmy user by somehow saying bad shit about MS and Apple at the same time, I guess
